As a community focused brand, Total Wireless, formerly Total by Verizon, thinks it’s finally time to give prepaid customers what they deserve - a partner that will not hike prices on them over time, has reliable high-speed connectivity, flexibility and top-tier devices. Here’s how they’re doing it:

• The price is the price, five-year guarantee. Now, new customers can get Unlimited data for less than $30/month guaranteed for five years. Taxes and fees included.*
• 10x faster data that never slows you down. Introducing up to 10 times faster unlimited data on Verizon’s 5G Ultra Wideband network.**
• Free 5G phones. Switch and get one of the latest 5G phones courtesy of Total Wireless when activating on a Total 5G plan.
• $200 Anniversary Credit toward any 5G phone. Get $200 off your next 5G phone after 12 monthly plan payments with Total Rewards.***
• Fourth line at no additional cost.

When looking at these best-in-class offerings, Total Wireless outshines its competitors. More details about the new offerings and side-by-side comparisons with the competition can be found at totalfacts.com.

“If you’re looking for the best value in wireless, Total is it,” said Nancy Clark, President of Verizon Value, which includes Total Wireless. “The Verizon Value portfolio of prepaid brands exists to match every customer’s need and redefine what a no-contract carrier can be. These enhancements make Total the obvious choice for anyone wanting high-quality experiences and great value, period.”

“We want to change the way people view the prepaid and no-contract industry, and Total is the only carrier who can truly do this because we have the power of the iconic Verizon network behind us,” said David Kim, Chief Revenue Officer of Verizon Value organization. “Prepaid customers are tired of being taken advantage of – we know because we asked them. Other competitors have raised prices on customers, buried fine print and blocked their customers from upgrades… but Total won’t. We will be the wireless brand that raises the bar - not our prices.”

To further set itself apart, Total Wireless has also unveiled a new brand look and feel, including a proprietary shade of teal developed specifically for Total, a rich blue, and bright yellow, combined with red to signify its parent company, Verizon (for visual assets see HERE). The distinctive color palette is designed to enhance the brand’s identity, stand out from the competition, and reflect the energy and vibrancy of the communities it serves. This new brand identity will roll out in a 360 campaign, inclusive of out-of-home, digital, and retail.

Total Wireless remains committed to serving and connecting with its customers year-round to meet their wireless needs and celebrate their passions. Over the last year, Total debuted a new Spanish-language ad on Univision and offered complimentary car clean-ups for Las Vegas rideshare drivers during the Big Game weekend. In September, the brand celebrated its 50th California store opening in Inglewood, a thriving community known for their rich cultural background, at the start of Hispanic Heritage Month. And, most recently, Total helped fútbol fans make their voices heard at some of the biggest fútbol events of the summer through Text-to-Sign.

Total Wireless features a broad lineup of devices, generous benefits and no-contract service plans for both single line accounts and families that are all powered by Verizon’s award-winning networks. Total Wireless can be found at the brand’s exclusive store locations and online at TotalWireless.com.
